Brewday Festival Feedback and Bugs 2022

    Brewday Festival is now active on Test!


    Make this Brewday Festival a memorable one! Follow the commotion of rowdy revelers located near every player city, and they’ll lead you to the festival's official brew house, The Bar of Brell. Once inside you’ll find plenty of holiday themed rewards, crafts, and adventures, both new and familiar, including Steinmaster Borric, a cleric of Serilis, who’s looking for some help assembling an altar for the Duke of Below.

    Of course, the festivities aren’t just limited to The Bar of Brell, as there are spirited celebrations and opportunities to raise a stein to Brell across Norrath, including Antonica, Kaladim, Loping Plains, Butcherblock Mountains, Enchanted Lands, and Thundering Steppes!

    And for those who plan on celebrating by patronizing as many of Norrath’s drinking holes as one can, this Brewday, keep an eye out for different drinks and bar bites to collect along the way.

    It's a little event crazy right now on Test, but after Erollisi Day is deactivated tonight we'll be down to two events (Chronoportals and Brewday), and they don't have anything that conflicts with one another.

    Thankfully, the live servers won't experience Brewday and Erollisi Day overlapping.

    Living Rootball Taunt action is hard to discern. All other new merchant and crafted items are good.

    Glug glug!

    well, the love goddess got kicked out, so we only have 2 festivals at the same time, at this point.
    And all that time travel makes thirsty.

    Hopping onto Brew Day now. I don't drink in real life, so this is my chance. :p
  7. Schmetterling Well-Known Member

    Hehe, I loved how you're trying to explain to the little panda what Brew Day is all about, and that it's not all about drinking.
    In the end you have to admit that that celebration is mostly about drinking alcohol.
  8. Uwkete-of-Crushbone Well-Known Member

    And cooking! :D

    yes, Uwkete and making some nice furniture and cloths too, but what you tell the panda is that it's really pretty much about drinking beer and booze.
    Like this year we get to make a tea set, with lots of green color, for green tea, I am sure.
    and I love, love, love those, Pretzels.

    that Kobold bed is so funny, I think my puppy would love it (as long as it was defleaed).
    And THANKE YOU for that kilt, I always wanted one, the whole outfit is just divine.

    Brewday is the easiest holiday to amass tokens super quickly, and I love it.

    Mount or plushie or housepet idea for next year: since this is a drunk-fest, how about a piggy-back rider? Like a goblin carrying another goblin piggy-back. Or you're getting "bounced" on the ogre bouncers shoulders (would have to be a ground mount, but the sitting is the same as on a horse. *eyes ttobey*)

    I don't know if this matters but a FYI Blueprint is not working with recipes Mechanized Thurgadin Distillery or Super Mechanized Thurgadin Distillery.

    suggestion for brew day: add a way here to get a bartender teleport thingy, like the old lon stein of somethingsomething

    We were just yakking about that in chat not too long ago; either a house item or an entire prestige "Holiday House! :D" where we could right-click and use it to get into special holiday places like the Bar of Brell, the Frostfell Village, the Moonlight Grotto of our choice, fast track directly to Gnomeland Security for Tinkerfest, etc. In the House, each "room" could be a different holiday portal, complete with "set decorations" or appropriately colored walls or whatever. :)

    Oh, I just had an idea for an item for next year, I love the new Scottish outfit (could really also be Irish) why don't we get a backpack that disguises itself as some bagpipes?

    And while we are at it a Hagis as a secondary weapon.

    Eww! :D Area of Effect; splatters all within a certain radius... ;)

    And yeah, bagpipes would be awesome; I have many Bard toons... :)

    Just went out on Tarinax to do some Brew Day quests, only to find out that a very important quest can't be done.
    Because we don't have " Rise of Kunark" yet the following quests cannot be done.
    Ale Goggles by Gilin, this is a key quest to obtain the improved Ale Goggles.
    Without the Goggles we cannot see the bushes to harvest,
    Valla Brewhammer's special Brew can also not be achieved.
    But for me not being able to harvest is the biggest disappointment. :(

    Another quest that cannot be done is, Ale in a Day's Work, because we lack the expansion "A Shadow Odyssey"
    The quests given by Oldar Foambeard also cannot be finished, Black Swill for Blackswell is another quest not doable for Tarinax.
    That leaves very little of the festival to us on Tarinax , I guess better than only a merchant.

    The good news is, buying the recipes is still a good idea, because on Aprill the first all harvestables will grow on bushes in Enchanted Land .

    Really? Hmm...I thought the Ale Goggles thing was way before RoK? :-/

    Or I could be misremembering... :-/

  19. Schmetterling Well-Known Member

    Uwkete for the Ale Goggle quest you have to visit 2 lovely ladies in "Timorious Deep, and that zone is part of "Rise of Kunark".
